Berlin_Freeper,
If you do any updates on this, could you please ping me.
Thanks
If this is true:
“I WAS THERE. I’m sick of all the lies. Here is the TRUTH, from someone on the ground.
We were at OP Mest,Paktika Province, Afghanistan. It was a small outpost where B Co 1-501st INF (Airbone) ran operations out of, just an Infantry platoon and ANA counterparts there. The place was an Afghan graveyard.
Bergdahl had been acting a little strange, telling people he wanted to “walk the earth” and kept a little journal talking about how he was meant for better things. No one thought anything about it. He was a little “out there”. Next morning he’s gone. We search everywhere, and can’t find him. He left his weapon, his kit, and other sensitive items. He only took some water, a compass and a knife. We find some afghan kids shortly after who saw an American walking north asking about where the taliban are. We get hits on our voice interceptor that Taliban has him, and we were close. We come to realize that the kid deserted his post, snuck out of camp and sought out Taliban… to join them. We were in a defensive position at OP Mest, where your focus is to keep people out. He knew where the blind spots were to slip out and that’s what he did.
It was supposed to be a 4-day mission but turned into several months of active searching. Everyone was spun up to find this guy. News outlets all over the country were putting out false information. It was hard to see, especially when we knew the truth about what happened and we lost good men trying to find him. PFC Matthew Michael Martinek, Staff Sgt. Kurt Robert Curtiss, SSG Clayton Bowen, PFC Morris Walker, SSG Michael Murphrey, 2LT Darryn Andrews, were all KIA from our unit who died looking for Bergdahl. Many others from various units were wounded or killed while actively looking for Bergdahl. Fighting Increased. IEDs and enemy ambushes increased. The Taliban knew that we were looking for him in high numbers and our movements were predictable.
Because of Bergdahl, more men were out in danger, and more attacks on friendly camps and positions were conducted while we were out looking for him. His actions impacted the region more than anyone wants to admit. There is also no way to know what he told the Taliban: Our movements, locations, tactics, weak points on vehicles and other things for the enemy to exploit are just a few possibilities.
The Government knows full well that he deserted. It looks bad and is a good propaganda piece for the Taliban. They refuse to acknowledge it. Hell they even promoted him to Sergeant which makes me sick. I feel for his family who only want their son/brother back. They don’t know the truth, or refuse to acknowledge it as well. What he did affected his family and his whole town back home, who don’t know the truth. Either way what matters is that good men died because of him. He has been lying on all those Taliban videos about everything since his “capture”. If he ever returns, he should be tried under the UCMJ for being a deserter and judged for what he did. Bergdahl is not a hero, he is not a soldier or an Infantryman. He failed his brothers. Now, sons and daughters are growing up without their fathers who died for him and he will have to face that truth someday.”
Obama has committed treason, now let’s see if Congress will act or if the democrats will make groom Bergdahl to be first a US Senator and then a Sec of State.
“I fear that this man will not face justice until he dies.”
I thought you were talking about Barack Hussein Obama at first.
Obama just did what he has done since his election: supported Islamic terrorism whenever he had a chance. How can anyone be surprised at this point? Do we have to wait until Iran detonates nuclear weapons over Tel Aviv and Houston?
I wonder what his endgame is?"
Obama wants to destroy the Republic, he is a communist spy, and hates the US.
Let’s hope some of men who served with Bergdahl will speak out.
If this is anywhere close to he truth, we have a budding constitutional crisis on our hands.
The Democrats have to be tarred and feathered with this, and all the Obama scandals until November’s elections.
And if the sheeple keep the Dems in power, then we are truly focked.
“It is starting to become evident that he is goading the Republicans to impeach him before November so Democrats can play the race card and hold on tote senate. All the while hastening this country’ s collapse.”
Excellent point.
At least the opposition party could hold public hearings and gather facts on this until after the election. This appears to be a broken law, but they need an open-and-shut case here anyway. Plus compile the other offenses (unapproved Libya attack, cover ups in F&F and Bengazi...). Start the impeachment trial in December.
Leaking the name of the CIA chief blinding our intel in this area at the same time they are releasing 5 top Taliban.
It was just an accident of course.
Repeat 3 times while clicking your heals together and it will become true.
Anything becomes true in the Land of Obama as long as you believe.
Self ping for later. Thanks for formatting the e-mail.
Thanks for the post. Of course the MSM will ignore it. Maybe Fox, O’Reilly or Hannity will pick it up.
This guy will just collect his 5 years of back pay with special bonuses?
Unable to verify, but did find an earlier post from 2013.

From a ground soldier with Bergdahl. Hero or Traitor? Is the government using this to add more bloodshed? -DW “I WAS THERE. I’m sick of all the lies. Here is the TRUTH, from someone on the ground.

Do you think Beohner cares? Boehner's inaction demands that we hold him complicit in ALL of Obama's actions.

We have been wishing for 6 years that the Marxist be held responsible -- never going to happen.
And if the sheeple keep the Dems in power, then we are truly focked.
Indeed. Most voters wont notice and/or wont care. Our Republic is truly in a death spiral.
I truly fear something terrible is on the horizon, likely happening before Jan 2017.
